I sell mark. cosmetics for the younger adult female basically it's a version of avon. but younger and updated. I currently work a full-time job and rarely have time to go around selling product. Where are some places I can go to hand out catalogs and sample products?

Well, you'er selling a beauty product, so think beauty! Go to hair salons and ask if it's okay first to give out your book, or even leave some books in their waiting rooms. Put out contest fish bowls that avertise a winner for a gift basket or something that you can make for really cheap with samples and dollar store items. Then call everyone that puts their name in the drawing and tell them that they've won! You don't even have to be there to let your bowls do all the selling for you! Sell to people in your office or people you come in contact with at the supermarket. Put business cards in with your bills when you send them out so that whoever receives your payment has your name. Give your business cards to EVERYONE! Hope it works for you!

YOU CAN"T USE EBAY BECAUSE IT'S AGAINST AVON CORPORATE RULES

You can go to offices and ask if you can leave a few in the employee break room or somewhere that employees go frequently. Also, colleges and technical schools break rooms. There is always craigslist and eBay. craigslist is like eBay only they have a separate site for each city and its free. Another idea, if its for younger girls, you can go to school functions (football games, etc.) and hand them out. GOOD LUCK :).

Why not use eBay? I have bought numerous top of the range make up from sellers online here & they do really well - also the client pays for postage so isn't costing you anything in the long run - give it a go!!!
Good Luck

Drop a few catalogs off at places like laundry mats, leave them at coffee shops, libraries, maybe ask a clerk at a local small convenience store if you could leave a few for their customers.... ask your friends if they would mind giving them to their friends & co-workers... or you could try Yahoo - they have site for developing your own low cost business website and offer all the tools to make profitable. GOOD LUCK IN MAKING IT WORK!

Try putting an ad in the newspaper or just simply go around to the younger girls in your neighborhood. Word of mouth is the best publicity.
